I’m asking You God, to give me what You have left.
Give me those things which others never ask of You.
I don’t ask You for rest, or tranquility.
Not that of the spirit, the body, or the mind.
I don’t ask You for wealth, or success, or even health.
All those things are asked of You so much Lord,
that you can’t have any left to give.
Give me instead Lord what You have left.
Give me what others don’t want.
I want uncertainty and doubt.
I want torment and battle.
And I ask that You give them to me now and forever Lord,
so I can be sure to always have them,
because I won’t always have the strength to ask again.
But give me also the courage, the energy,
and the spirit to face them.
I ask You these things Lord,
because I can’t ask them of myself

He visited Rome, converted to Christianity, and came back. His hosts were surprised and asked him why. He explained that he witnessed the corruption of the priesthood and cardinals, the goodness of the people and the extent of their devotion, and determined that if Christianity could produce these results even with the corrupt priesthood it must of necessity be True. So he converted.Read More

Property is not only a right, it is the primary difference between humans and animals. Animals make and use tools, at least some of them do. But they do not keep tools, make tools for others, create reusable designs for tools, and maintain ownership of the tools. Anything else animals improve humans do as well, and humans keep their improvements and improve on them further. Ownership of property is the physical fact that separates us from animals. It is a primary right, an aboriginal one, the most ancient of rights, along with the rights to life (self defense) and liberty (the right to move or settle down freely). Stripped of our property we become as animals. Look at any skid row and realize the inhabitants keep all their property around them, because it is the only thing that keeps them human.Read More
